Is it normal to pop zits and blackheads to the extreme?

I pop zits and scratch at my skin until I have bleeding gashes. I have mostly outgrown my acne, but I find myself absent mindedly searching for any imperfection or pore that I can claw at. I want to stop, but I can’t seem to.

Is It Normal?

  • I bet your face probably looks like an oatmeal cookie. Not so hygienic and i hope you don't touch people with your infected DNA fingers

  • Sounds like you have some sort of OCD thing about poking at yourself. I also suspect that you have very poor impulse control. Gashes on your face aren't good.

    I think you would better serve yourself to research how to give yourself a facial online, and maybe even watch those Dr. Pimple Popper videos on YouTube to get your fix of pimple popping satisfaction.

    Always wash your hands and face. Don't use your nails.

  • People have entire youtube channels over this crap.
    It is not normal really but it seems to be too common.

  • It causes scarring. Wait until they are ripe.
